Bencze on this wine: "In the "˜Riesling' series in every vintage, we blend pure Riesling picked only in our special plot called "˜Templomdombi'. We harvest from our young
plantation and blend the vessels that we won't use for our single-vineyard wines. The cuvée has to represent our terroir, our philosophy perfectly, while being easygoing at the same time."
Hand-picked grapes, pressed as whole clusters. Fermented in different types of amphoras and a 1500-L oval Slavonian oak barrel, then aged for 10 months on lees. Blended one month before bottling, then bottled without fining, filtration, and without added sulfur.
